The streets are lit up, families are visiting, and tasty feasts are being cooked in every kitchen. It can only mean one thing… the holidays are coming and it’s time for an ethical gift guide!
Hopefully, you’ve made it to the holiday season with a lot of loved ones on your nice list. While you want to treat them with thoughtful gifts, amid the influx of cheesy commercials and flashy shop windows we know it can be hard to get started. How do you find genuinely sustainable gifts? And how do you make them meaningful to the person you’re shopping for?
Don’t worry, we’ve got the answers. At Jimbo & Jules, we aim to create wellness solutions for everyone, and our mission doesn’t take a break just because the festivities have begun. To make your life easier, we’ve built CBD gift sets for every wellness lover – and the best part, they’re kind to the planet too!
Ethical Shopping this holiday season
Before we start shopping, let’s take a quick look at why ethical gift-giving is so important.
Between Thanksgiving and New Year, the US throws away 25% more trash than the rest of the year. Put differently, that’s 25 million tons of extra garbage or 1 million extra tons per week. On Christmas day alone, 4 million tons of gift wrapping, and shopping bags are added to the heap.
But ethical shopping isn’t just about waste; it’s about the why behind what we buy.
Did you know 1 in 5 Americans go into debt at Christmas? It’s no wonder 70% of Americans think the holiday is too focused on money. It’s even worse when you consider that, in 2018, 19% of people didn’t even like the gifts they received.
It’s time to rethink the way we consume during the holidays.
Ethical Gift Guide
Luckily, Jimbo & Jules products are low on waste and big on meaning. We work hard to ensure our packaging is either easily recyclable, reusable, or compostable, and have a range of initiatives in place to make our environmental impact a positive one. We’ve carefully crafted these bundles to suit the needs of different consumers, so you can be sure the recipient will love what they receive.
